New indirect bonding technologies have assumed an important role in Orthodontics to obtain increasingly accurate clinical results in or-thodontic treatments. With the development of means of obtaining and manipulating digital images, the possibility to carry out orthodon-tic planning in the virtual environment arose, simulating the desired result, as well as the best positioning of orthodontic accessories on teeth to achieve this goal. The possibility of three-dimensional printing using CAD/CAM technology allowed the guide for the transfer of bra-ckets, in indirect bonding, to be made directly in the software after di-gital planning of their position. Currently, some companies have made programs available or offered the possibility of executing digital plan-ning, customized brackets, personalized arches and guides for indirect bonding. This article aims to perform a literature review, gathering recent information on indirect bonding using the CAD/CAM system in relation to bonding accuracy and time of orthodontic treatment. It is concluded that the indirect bonding using CAD/CAM systems presents reliability in relation to the precision of the positioning of brackets. Regarding the treatment time, several studies suggest that it was reduced with the method, however, the variety of existing tech-niques and software, in addition to the diversity of scientific methods, indicate the need for further investigations. Despite this, indirect digi-tal bonding has proved to be an interesting option to be incorporated into orthodontic treatment. |
